Mrs. Bowser was next called: |
know Charles r. Petrie. Saw Mrs.
Rozelle and Petrie on the street car to-
gether last January. They got on the
car together at the corner of College
and Alameda streets. He assisted her
on the car and sat beside her. They
got off the car at the corner of Temple
street.
Police Officer Jeffries was next
called: Know Charles Il. Petrie and
Mrs. Rozelle. Have seen them to-
gether Saw them ON street car to-
gether last February on Main street,
opposite the courthouse. They were
sitting side by side, but don't know
whether they were talking or not.
On another occasion saw them to-
gether on Spring street, opposite
the old postoffice. He knew Mrs.
Rozelle at that time by sight He
saw Mrs. Rozelle and Mr.. Petrie to-
gether. Before he became police
man he drove Il street car, and Petrie
rede with him frequently. When
asked why he noticed Mr.. Petrie and
Mrs. Rozelle together, the witness re-
piled that he looked at them because
he knew that Petrie was married, and
he thought it rather strange that he
was out with another mans wife. On
another occasion he saw Mrs. Rozelle
and Mr.. Petrie together in an eating
saloon.
Officer Hill was next called, and
testified as follows: | am a police
man. | know Petrie. Saw him on
one occasion with a lady. She was
dressed in dark material. 1t was about
dark. was talking with Petrie few
moments before. | saw lady come
out of house on College street and
join him. They went down the street
together. The witnes could not iden-
tify Mrs. Rozelle as the lady, and his
testimony was stricken out.
Charles r. Petrie was recalled and
denied all of Mrs. Rozelle's statements.
The defense then recalled Mrs. Ro-
zelle. The witness was asked if she
was ever in Bob Eckert's place. The
prosecution objected on the ground
that it was "rebuttal to rebuttal' tes-
timony. A general argument took
place, during which all the counsel
took the floor at once. The court,
however, ruled that he would be gov
erned by the character of the ques-
tions. Continuing, the witness said
that she was sick in bed in the month
of March and was not in company
with Mr.. Petrie.
The defense finally closed its case,
and the case was continued until 9
o'clock this morning, when it will be
argued, and in all probability 60 to the
jury this forenoon.
